Post Your Overclock! [2]

[tom982]

Is there a simple OC'ing guide? I'd love to OC one of my many PC's. I don't care about damaging, I got all files saved, and multiple PC's to work with if one is screwed

Have they got overclockable (if that's a word) CPUs? You need an unlocked multiplier

CPUs in my PC's I'm interested in OC'ing.
Intel Core 2 Duo T5550 @ 1.83 GHz (I know people say OC'ing on a laptop is pretty much impossible, but I've got nothing to lose)
Intel Celeron 900 @ 2.20 GHz
AMD Athlon 64 XD @ 2.2 GHz
Intel Pentium Dual Core @ 2.4 GHz

You also need to have a BIOS that has settings available for overclocking. I think 99% of factory PCs have that all locked out.

Crap. Oh well then, I'll wait till I get my money for my build. Is this system good for OC'ing?
AMD Athlon II X2 270, MSI Radeon HD 6450 - System Build - PCPartPicker

4.5 ghz on my i7 3930k at 1.35. Runs perfectly well in hot tropical Asian weather air cooled alongside dual xmp 1866 1.65V 32 gb.

You run at 1.35V on air!? Wow :shock:

That's a high volt, what are your temps?

 

[shawnglory]

This is where I was pleasantly surprised too. 32 on desktop 60 highest at load and on hot afternoons 70 to 75 though I do go down to 3.8 in the afternoons to be safe.

 

[Pedroc1999]

it is good to be sure you dont burn it

 

[shawnglory]

Yeah I burnt a c2e before and it was heart breaking though Thanks to the new architecture and smaller dyes its almost fool proof as long as you know the ceiling. Also set ups like mine do require higher than average power settings. It was worth a cold sweat and some shivers first time around.

I never seen my temps hit that high in the heat or otherwise but if it works for you who are we to complain underload my temps reach 38c at the most @1.42volts then again im using AMD so the threshholds are different when it comes to heat

When I was in Scotland it would be something I'd dread about but being in South East Asia tropical climate with afternoon temps hitting 40 celcius more often than not I'd say I'm pretty satisfied. The humidity here can be unbearable too.

Posting some OC benches

Thought I would Drum up some Benches for everyone on the performance of the 8350 @4.5 Ghz flat

It certainly is alot faster then a 8120-8150

 

[ganjiry]

Turning out to be a decent cpu ent they chap
nice scores mate scores a lot better than my 6100 @ 4ghz in cinebench and i get 11237 in 3dmark 11 with my cards at stock.
Nice 1

Nice scores Solar

My GPU lets me down in 3d Mark but then again I only have 1. But my cpu is strong in it at 4.5ghz.

Im just glad it is stable and runs ,your scores are very good too most people don't have the money to even form a rig like we have so can't complain

Really good scores mate, that physics score is double mine. those intel chips score well there enit.

Well, if everyone is posting, here's my latest.
